Kinda what GDPR tried and now the internet is almost unusable because greedy companies put cookie banners on every fucking site

Exactly, I‘m German and it happens here a lot. My street is particularly bad because there’s not enough street parking - which would be a good thing if they actually punished people parking on the sidewalk.

Jap, ich habe mal in der IT eines großen Unternehmens gearbeitet und da gab es zusammengehackte Anwendungen, die nur unter einer ganz bestimmten Java Version richtig liefen. Da kann man sich vorstellen wie schwierig es wäre das gesamte OS zu wechseln.

As a freelance dev it’s not quite as bad now but it’s insane to see that some of my clients think I got replaced by a machine now only to show me a buggy vibe coded mess of an app that is poorly designed and works half the time at best. I like some of the LLM tools but it’s important to understand their abilities and limitations especially in regards to future capabilities as there are hard limits to how capable they can become.

Way too many people think the tools are smart because they can „talk“ and these same people do not understand any of the underlying tech.

Some of my clients send ChatGPT written instructions now that are missing half the context of what I‘m actually doing.

In Germany too and I remember how upsetting it was to me from the beginning. There were third party messengers that supported established (at the time) services like ICQ or live messenger but people got onto the hot new thing because it’s so much like SMS.

And they have done this before with Screen Mirroring. Great move by Apple to try to weaken Europe and rally its citizens against it just to potentially make a tiny sliver more money.

Yeah also noticing similar bullshit. People send me exact steps on what to do written by ChatGPT that understands exactly nothing about the context and is therefore often wrong or a half truth at best.

Another client has pushed a single commit to a messy project that added 70k lines and a load of new features. The project is now unmaintainable.

Ist mir auch schon aufgefallen. Was auch nervt: deutsche Untertitel für deutschen Content sind immer nur in der gehörlosen Version verfügbar, wo dann auch Dinge wie dramatische Musik auftauchen und Sätze oft vereinfacht sind.

Für Menschen, die einfach nicht so gut deutsch sprechen und lernen / besser zuhören wollen ist das eine ziemliche Barriere.
